Description

Cognida delivers trusted blockchain solutions that address the increasingly complex information sharing challenges that enterprises face by allowing them to incorporate decentralized blockchain security features into their existing Infrastructure. Enterprises can leverage Cognida’s Service Network Interface to connect to trusted service networks where they can administer third-party cloud services from a single interface, enabling administrators to manage privacy, access, and security of their data on remote systems through a unified platform. As enterprises adopt new distributed technologies, the data landscape is evolving away from centralized services maintained behind corporate firewalls to a complex distributed landscape. This trend has corporate data scattered across devices and services outside the enterprises’ administrative control.

The Cognida Platform, which has been developed by Windmill Enterprise, solves these disconnects by enabling enterprises to benefit from the advantages of existing blockchain technology to address their growing security and privacy challenges. The Cognida Platform will be released to an open-source foundation at the launch of the Cognida Service Network.

It seems that the team is describing some kind of escrow or multisig service, but the way they describe it seems unnecessarily complicated and vague.
